Gack!  Now we no longer have a "wish" by default?  That seems
a bad thing.  Yes, I could easily change tkirc to explicitly
invoke wish8.0, but that'd be a bad thing for all those Tcl/Tk books
which start with "first, type wish to start a Tk interpreter" - we
may have gained version independance by naming our wishes with
the version number only but only by blowing POLA right out the
window.  I think that the tk port should set the link and "wish"
should default to whichever version of Tk I last installed.
